Ygin

Ygin
The Unknown, Madness, Fear, Night

❧ Played by Nishi
Appearance: It is impossible to get a clear picture of Ygin all at once. It has feminine hands, but a clenched, lantern jaw. You might see the line of a cloak, hunched and stooped, but you might also see flowing, black hair. It has a long, lizagon-like tail, and the presence of it is most often the only consistent sign it is openly in the area.
The voice is a low, genderless whisper, directly in the person’s right or left ear, inaudible to anyone else. You might sometimes hear feathers, or the rasp of scales, gurgles or scrapes. The smell is dry and papery, or wet and fetid.
Whenever Ygin is around, people will feel a tight feeling between their shoulder blades, as if something is watching them.
Characteristics: Childlike, insatiably curious, sadistic, inquisitive, ponderous, demanding, fickle, irrational and sometimes outright gibberingly insane.

Likes: Courage, terror, chimeras, were creatures, shape shifters who lose control by nature, self-awareness, emotional vulnerability, hallucination-prone people, scrying or dreaming powers, phobias, playing mind games

Dislikes: Bravado, rhetoric, scholarly learning, order, science, machinery, unflappable people, people without curiosity, obtuse people, bright lights, restrictions.
Shrine: The shrine presents itself as a dark opening in the wall. It’s large enough to walk into, but you cannot see, hear or sense anything inside.

Ritual: Getting its attention can be as simple as putting a hand in the opening, but walking entirely in is guaranteed to get an answer and quite a bit more favor.

[Okay pain he can deal with, and the touch to her head feels cooler as he pours energy into her, healing the minor aches with the gifts he's received.

At this rate he should have taken just straight healing, he's used it so much since accepting the priesthood with Dellen]

We're fine. We're okay. Maybe we should get you back to the apartment and have you rest.

[As the pain eases she seems to relax and her body slumps slightly against him, forehead resting on his shoulder. The pain in her throat and chest has gone along with the sensation of breathlessness and inhales deeply before nodding her head.]

Okay.

[WELP he didn't expect that, but maybe Ygin effected her more? He knows very little about her past, she could have had a hard one-

Well he's getting up now, pulling her with him even if she's a bit taller than him. His trip with Leedin has made him taller but not by much. Just that bit of growth spurt that comes with puberty- it's obvious though he'll be tall if it happens again]

Let's go.

[and he's pulling her along, a grip on her hand firm]

[She lets him drag her though it's a bit awkward at points, she keeps turning to stare behind them as if she's worried they're being followed. She's jumpy, obviously very anxious and she's still shaking as if she's cold.]

((Hey, let's go~!))
